But, if you type F1 while you are in /bin/sh, you'll see the cursor move up a line. That indicates that cygwin is mapping F1 to ^[[A, which is, AFAICT, incorrect. It probably *should* be mapping to ^[OP. And, F2 should be ^[OQ, etc. I used to have these things memorized from my past life maintaining a text editor (among other things). cgf -- Please do not send me personal email with cygwin questions or observations.
